4. सेटअप
१. अनपॅकिंग आणि प्लेसमेंट
Carefully remove the engraver from its packaging. Place the machine on a stable, level surface capable of supporting its weight (approximately 251 lb.). Ensure sufficient clearance around the machine for ventilation and access to the pass-through doors.
4.2. Connecting Cooling System
The CO2 laser tube requires water cooling. Connect the provided water pump to the designated inlet and outlet ports on the machine. Fill the water reservoir with distilled water. Ensure the water pump is submerged and operating correctly before powering on the laser.
4.3. Connecting Air Assist
Connect the air assist compressor to the machine's air inlet. The air assist system helps to clear debris from the laser's path and reduce scorching during cutting and engraving.
4.4. Exhaust System Installation
Attach the exhaust fan and ducting to the machine's exhaust port. Route the ducting to an outdoor vent or a suitable filtration system to safely remove smoke and fumes from the workspace.
4.5. विद्युत जोडणी
Connect the power cable to the machine and a grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the power supply matches the machine's requirements.
4.6. Software Installation (LightBurn)
Install the LightBurn software on your computer. Follow the instructions provided with your LightBurn license for installation and activation. Connect the engraver to your computer via USB or Ethernet cable.

5. ऑपरेशन
5.1. पॉवरिंग चालू
Ensure all connections (power, water, air, exhaust) are secure. Turn on the main power switch on the machine. Allow the water cooling system to circulate before proceeding.
३.१. साहित्य लोड करणे
Open the machine lid and place your material onto the workbed. Ensure the material is flat and securely positioned. For larger materials, utilize the four-way pass-through doors.
5.3. Autofocus Function
The machine features an autofocus function. Position the laser head over the material and activate the autofocus. The laser head will automatically adjust to the optimal focal distance for your material, ensuring precise engraving and cutting.

5.4. Using LightBurn Software
Create or import your design in LightBurn. Configure the appropriate laser settings (power, speed, passes) based on your material and desired outcome. Preview the job to ensure correct placement and scale.
5.5. Engraving and Cutting Process
Close the machine lid. Initiate the job from LightBurn. The machine will begin the engraving or cutting process. Monitor the operation closely. The maximum engraving speed is 600 mm/s.

6. देखभाल
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your laser engraver.
- Lens and Mirror Cleaning: Periodically clean the laser lens and mirrors with a specialized lens cleaning solution and cotton swabs. Dust and debris can degrade laser performance.
- पाणी थंड करण्याची व्यवस्था: Regularly check the water level in the cooling reservoir and replenish with distilled water as needed. Replace the water every 1-2 months to prevent algae growth and maintain cooling efficiency.
- Air Assist Nozzle: Inspect and clean the air assist nozzle to ensure unobstructed airflow.
- Workbed Cleaning: Clean the honeycomb workbed to remove accumulated debris and residue.
- स्नेहन: Apply a small amount of lubricant to the guide rails and moving parts as recommended by the manufacturer to ensure smooth operation.
